The Spanish midfielder currently plays with Qatar's al-Sadd Sports Club and will head to the camp this week where he is expected to teach his skills and inspire children caught up in the world's worst humanitarian crisis.

"I'm very excited to be joining this programme, which really inspired me through the fantastic work they are doing with different groups within society," Xavi said according to a statement.

Hernandez also helpes youngsters in Spain and Qatar through his football academy.

He also joined the Generation Amazing programme to help children, migrant workers and refugees, he said.
